GCloud Function with F#

this is a small sample of how easy is to write F# Functions for Google Cloud Platform

Deploy

• Create a gcloud project
• Run gcloud init
• Set your project where you want to deploy your functions
• Run gcloud functions deploy json-to-csv-fn --entry-point JsonToCsv.Function --runtime dotnet3 --trigger-http --allow-unauthenticated

  Note: this will allow anyone to hit your function so be careful for potential abuses

Run

Note: do not forget to put your cloud function endpoint in the index file line 11 (index.fsx:11)

once your function is deployed

• Run dotnet fsi index.fsx

this will make a request your endpoint with a sample data set and convert that json into an excel file which will be downloaded into file.xlsx you can delete the current one to see it's working

originally it was going to be a csv file, but I decided to spice it a little bit more and convert that into a full Excel file thanks to this project so feel free to go and support Zaid's wonderfull OSS work any time you can 😁
